Absolutely beautiful mate, will hopefully be able to see it in the flesh some time.

Quote from: ENVYD;681472thanks mate, yeah thats how close they will be staning, on compression the top of the wheels starts to tuck in with more -camber, so it starts to clear a lil more!

According to a test one of the guys did on a US forum, for every 2 inches the suspension travels up you get 3 degrees of negative camber.

ENVYD

yeah maybe mate, hope to be getting a a few shows with in in the future!
 
hmm my should be around 3 then, as it must be about 2" drop (i think)

well some free lance photographers were up at Jurgen\'s (jm-import) the other day and they knew about my car from last month they were up, they had spoken to a few mags and got loads of interest in my car (jap performance said they might use it as a cover car when finished) so they wanted to get a few snaps on it to show the mags!
 
anyways, i give it a bit of a clean and pushed it over to Jurgen’s ready for them, while they were away doing a shoot! but doing this, i cracked the front bumper lol, at least i know its low enough!
 
some quick snaps i got anyways:
diffuser is back off for a lil bit (just to push around)
 

















bless, how small dose it looks between a 33gtr and a supra:

hnmmm i really like this build... but!

i think you either need bigger wheels or it needs bringing up a bit... wheels just look lost :(

ENVYD

yeah it looks that way on the photos for some reason bud! the stance looks well diffrent in person!

Joeh

Waah, thats way to low even for a road without speed bumps! Uneven road will be a PITA and make you cringe when you scratch the underbody :(

ENVYD

nah its fine bud! i dont mind if a catch it,  i will just fix it! i have seen many cars that are lower and are fine on the avrage road!

ENVYD

well a small up date after alot of passed time:
 
anyways, got the tailgate painted yesterday and fitted it today (still needs a flat and polish):
 




 
also fitted new coilovers:
 



 
put some new stickies and bonded the front seal:

I\'ve got a spare rear bumper black plastic trim thingie if you need one mate, looking at the 2nd to last pic it would fit between the diff and rear bumper and would finish off the back of the car a treat
:Laugh LOL
